The United States Army Continues To Lose Soldiers With Three More Killed In Action

Sadly, the loss of life continues in 'Operation Enduring Freedom.' Since last Monday’s post, we have brought home three (3) more from the U.S. Army. I say it again; It's time for those to defend and protect their own countries. We have done it for over a decade now. Enough is enough!
